Former Secretary of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) Sani Ahmed Toro, has narrated his ordeals with kidnappers who seized him with two friends, former Assistant Coach of the Super Eagles, Garba Yali and Alh. Isa Jah.
Toro, Yali and Jah were kidnapped at 5.00 pm around Akwanga in Nasarawa State on Sunday after attending the wedding of the son of former NFF President Aminu Maigari.
A family source said that on Sunday the kidnappers had contacted Maigari and demanded N150m ransom for their release.
Speaking to Journalists in his residence in Bauchi on Wednesday, Toro said they were starved for almost three days without food or water.
According to him, the heavily armed kidnappers, who were about 12, stopped their vehicles at Anguwan Mallam Musa, Fada Karshe, close to Kaduna State around 8:pm on Sunday.
”Pointing their guns at us, they ordered us to get out of our car and start trekking. We trekked from 8pm-5 am. We crossed through a river that almost reached us at chest level. They neither gave us food nor water to drink. It was a terrible experience,” he said.
The former NFF scribe said the kidnappers took them to an unknown destination in the forest where they stayed for almost three days without food or water.
“They were young men in their 30s, who apart from starving us, prevented us from saying our prayers when it was time,” he added.
Expressing gratitude, he said that the prayers of Nigerians and his family secured his release.
Toro said he cannot ascertain whether a ransom was paid to secure his release or not, adding that he has forgiven his abductors. (Nation)
